DPDKP

I feel privileged to enlighten all stakeholders that the management of Directorate of Professional Development (DPD), Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Peshawar intends to enter into an era of ICT based knowledge management and record keeping of all professional development initiatives of teachers and education managers, initiated by Directorate of Professional Development (DPD). The teachers are being trained both in content and pedagogical skills through different programs like continuing Professional Development (CPD) and Induction Program (IP). Both the programs are being implemented successfully, across the province since 2018. A contextualized need-based capacity development program of school and district managers is underway. I am confident that on completion of these training programs, the school and district managers will be able to perform more efficiently which will result in better service delivery. DPD is also developing linkages with integrated EMIS database for real-time capacity development data. This will help in divulging training to the targeted teachers and managers on one side and monitoring overlapping of efforts on other side. I hope this initiative will help in achieving our mission through quality interventions for continuing professional development of teachers and managers. Comments and suggestions for improvement will be highly appreciated.
